Well, listening to Chris Moyles on the radio he mentioned his new TV show...which got me thinking (something I've been doing a lot of recently), and I started fantacising about Sarah Michelle Gellar lying naked in my bath. But then I started fantacising about something to do with games - what would it be like if our favourite gaming characters presented our favourite TV shows?
I for one am tired of seeing the likes of Vernon Kaye and H from Steps cluttering up my weekend morning viewing, so hows about we got some people with REAL personality?!
So, here's my ideas for some shows that could be really spiced up with some creative casting.
THE GTA3 GUY hosting THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW: A dark, brooding, quiet man would be the ideal host for a show. He's seen many terrible acts of violence, and lives in a world ridden with sleaze...so nothing would surprise him. Plus, if the guests get rowdy, he could whip out an Uzi and maintain order, Liberty City style!
BOWSER hosting HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR YOU: Angus Deyton may be a favourite with the BBC, but he's a soft touch. The team captains wouldn't be able to win cheap points if Bowser was in charge, oh no...he'd keep Merton and Hislop in check with fire breath. Also, his practise with Mario will shine through when belittling the panel, cackling uncontrollably.
ULALA hosting TOP OF THE POPS: Everyone's favourite character from Space Channel Five would be the ideal person to bring back the big ratings to TOTP. Her infectious dancing style and funky outfits will make her a hit with the girls...and her shapely, computer-generated figure will make the boys drool.
LARA CROFT specializing on ANTIQUES ROADSHOW: Lara has been there and done it when you're talking about raiding tombs, and so bringing her in to Antiques Roadshow as an expert on Ancient Egypt would be a great idea.
GUYBRUSH THREEPWOOD in CORONATION STREET: Often goofy, sometimes foolish, but always hilarious - which makes Guybrush the perfect candidate to play dopey Ashley's long-lost brother.
RAIZEL in EASTENDERS: Conversely, Raziel, demon of the world below would be perfectly suited to the dark and dreary East End of London. He could also be a long lost sibling, this time as a relation to one of the Slaters, as it seems the writers have no qualms about making up new members of the godforsaken family as it goes along.
DAXTER hosting DA ALI G SHOW: Daxter would ideally be suited to hosting Da Ali G show, mainly because after about two minutes he gets really annoying.
LUIGI in FRIENDS: Luigi is occasionally in games, such as Luigi's Mansion and Super Smash Brothers...but he is largely in the shadow of other main Nintendo characters, such as Link, Donkey Kong and brother Mario. As a result, he comes off as rather weak, feeble, and rubbish; so he would be fine playing Gunther in Friends.
Thoughts? Ideas?
